Short story in My Weekly - Fabric of Life

Image
I've a short story in My Weekly magazine this week and it's called Fabric of Life.  Stumped for writing inspiration one day, I asked my husband: "What shall I write about?" He replied: "Tea towels and the memories they hold."  After I stopped laughing at him, I began to write and the result is beautiful, funny and sharp. __ Glenda Young Author of historical novels with Headline Twitter: @Flaming_Nora Facebook: GlendaYoungAuthor

Mother's Day Story in My Weekly Magazine

I've a short story in My Weekly magazine this week. It's called Pink Wafers and is inspired by real-life. I rarely write about myself or real-life in my stories, but this one is very special and poignant. I actually started writing it a couple of years ago as a piece of prose, trying to put down into words something I couldn't articulate, not properly.  The short story grew out of that piece of prose and has this week been published.
